So you've had your photo session, now what...?! Well, it's time to get those images printed. But that's not an easy task! As a photographer myself, even I have a difficult time deciding what to print after having our family portraits.... YES, I do hire a professional photographer!

Like most people, I love every image in my gallery and so these are NJP's must have products...

Number 1 ~ A BIG canvas.I always suggest about 1-3 LARGE canvases or LARGE framed prints if you prefer. I have in the past been too conservative and bought a smaller canvas, and I have ALWAYS regretted it. My advice, if you have the room, go BIG! It always looks nice to have at least one BIG picture, which you can then accentuate with smaller prints.

Number 2 ~ A session album.

This is an affordable way to print ALL your favorite images. I know that with my little ones being so young that my displays will change throughout the years. However, I want to be able to look back on each session, remember the memories and see my family’s growth. SO I ALWAYS GET A SESSION ALBUM. They are the perfect way to beautifully display your memories, but they can be stored easily on a shelf or table without taking up too much space.

Number 3 ~ Birth Announcements.

If you've just had a baby you obviously want to share the news with everyone! Birth announcements are an obvious choice. To this day, I still have a framed birth announcement in each of my boys' rooms. Today, there are just SO many options to choose from.

If you are unsure what to buy after your session, just ask!!! Your photographer can help you decide what will work best to fill your home with beautiful images of your loved ones. It can help to send your photographer images of the wall space in your home. This will give them a better idea of what images will display best depending on the size and color of your space. If your budget is limited then definitely go for one large print and a session album – you’ll have the best of both worlds.
